  3. Vicki it was explained to me by my surgeon that the higher your bmi the more weight you will loss in the first two months, those with a lower bmi may loss weight slower. Maybe speak to your nutrionist regarding your food intake and calorie intake.
  4. So sorry for your loss, I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Please continue to sip your fluids and get in your protein you will need this in order to have the strength to make it through this troubling time.
  5. Great Job! Keep up the good work

  10. Hi Dayle, Sorry you had a rough time in the hospital, now that your home I pray for smooth road ahead. Take Care
  11. Hello Shaundra, I'm sorry that your depressed I struggle with depression and I completly understand the not having energy to play your daughter. Maybe you should save your money and go see a therapist the specializes in depression caused by weight issues. Then when you feel better about live and yourself have your revision surgery (hopfully this will also give you more time to save more money) My husband and I struggled after my surgery with finances and it was not fun at all and caused me to become more depressed about my decision to have my sleeve. We are still struggling but I will be returing to work soon and the money will not be and issue, all I can say is struggling with your finances after this type of surgery for me took away the joy of my weightloss. I hope this helps you with your decision and if your reglious may I suggest you pray or talk to your minister. Take Care
  12. You can have yogurt, sf pudding and sf Jello maybe these items would help with your hunger.
  13. Outstanding! You are truly an inspiration and it's great that you made your on goals.
  14. Hello! @ two weeks I was doing 20 mins of step Wii Fit, and some simple yoga poses.
  15. I just purchased Muscle Milk today from WalMart this will be my first time trying this brand of protein drink. I've been purchasing Unjury or Celebrate protein powder online.
  16. Hello and Welcome! I was sleeved Nov. 8th and by my 3rd week I had alot of head hunger. I know this is hard, for you but the head hunger will pass. When I have extreme head hunger I find some busy work to do around the house ie polish my nails, pull out my sewing machine or go for a walk at the mall looking at the the smaller clothing stores which helps me focus on why I had this surgery in the first place. I promise the head hunger will pass and you also have someting I do not have you're blessed with a husband who has gone through this and can give you support. My husband supports me, but does not understand head hunger at all he Snacks all day long which is the reason that I sometimes go the mall. I hope this helps
  17. Sorry for the late post, I pray your recovering okay at this time. I had no complications, I just wanted to send my blessings and a hope that all is well.
  18. I stopped my pain meds in the hospital prior to discharged, the bloating and gas stay with me 3 days upon returning home. Oh I was in the hospital for 3 days, but everyone heals at their own pace. Take Care and I hope this helps.
  19. Hey endometriosis sister, my hysterectomy stalled my sleeved. But like you I over came it and I'm now enjoy my new stomach. Congratulations on your new life and keep taking those pics.....lol
  20. 4 WEEKS POST OP! I've been able to workout on my WII for 30 mins step and yoga two days a week. Walking everyday for 2 miles on the treadmill. Never in a million years would I have thought that working out would be part of daily routine. It feels great!
  21. I'll say a prayer for you, good luck
  22. Thanks I will try adding peanut butter, I tried adding fruit did not help matters at all.
  23. I thought it was a good idea to buy the Celebrate chocolate Multivitamin Protein powder Vitamins and protein all in one shake great right....NOT. I'm almost done with the large container that I purchased online, and what has been helping me recently is that I now add 4 oz of hot decaf coffee to the mix it takes away the strong Vitamin smell. I can not wait until I finish this container...UGGGGH! Anyway thanks for letting me vent, is anyone else tired of the Protein shakes?
  24. Co workers need to mind their business, I'm not looking forward to going back to work in a few weeks the looks...the whisper...UGGGGGH! Just reading your post made want to tell your co workers off, why when your over weight everyone has an opinion. Hang in there, hopfully their attitudes will change after your surgery. Good Luck
